Dr. Murray is one of the kindest and compassionate vets. He thinks of things I never thought of. Example, not ringing the doorbell or knocking on the door when he arrived . This was to avoid upsetting Jet. Sent a text message instead. He speaks in a calm and soft tone. He explained what to expect and kept his bag out of our sight. Jet passed peacefully in his home. Highly recommend Dr. Murray. 🌈

We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.

Dr. Murray brought a level of peace and comfort to our home during the most difficult time of our life. We feared his (and any vet's) presence would feel somewhat dark knowing what was about to happen. However, when he got to our home, he sat with our Jax and just wanted to learn about him, his life, his favorite things, and our favorite memories with him. He gave us all the time we needed and comforted us. We miss our Jax and Dr. Murray helped us give him the send off he deserved.

When Dr. Lara arrived, she took time with Hannah so that she felt comfortable with her. There was no rush. She made the visit all about Hannah's feelings , which impressed me. I felt the home euthanasia was the best way to honor Hannah. Dr. Lara Allison was gentle and empathetic during her visit. Dr. Allison contacted me several times before and after her visit. So, I felt like I knew her before we met in person. That made a difference to me.

So helpful, compassionate and patient as well as competent, skilled and professional. She tended to the needs of our kitty as well as mine through the entire process. She accommodating all my crying and need to hold Bandit until the end. I highly recommend her.

We suddenly found ourselves in an unbearable situation with our 17-year-old dog, Teddy. His health declined so quickly, and we had to rush to find someone who could help us say goodbye at home. Thankfully, we were able to book an appointment with Dr. Lisa. She came to our house with such humility, patience, and compassion. She listened as we cried and asked a million questions, gently reassuring us that we were doing the right thing for our sweet boy. She never rushed us, she gave us the space and time we needed to say goodbye. As heartbreaking as it was, Teddy passed peacefully and comfortably in our arms. Dr. Lisa treated him with love, dignity, and respect, and made sure he was safely transported for cremation. She even followed up with us afterward to reassure us he had arrived where he needed to go. Losing Teddy has been one of the hardest things we’ve ever gone through, but we have no regrets choosing Dr. Lisa. She gave our boy the most loving, gentle passing we could have hoped for.
